Wound Care

Wounds are complex, unique, and are never a “one-size-fits-all-treatment.”

RAMC Wound Care strives for a multi-faceted approach to wound care which may involve a variety of disciplines including our outpatient infusion department (right across the hall!), registered dieticians, occupational therapy for lymphedema management, surgeons, physicians, and more.

We also provide infectious disease consults via telemedicine. Please note – not all insurances cover telemedicine services. Upon referral, coverage will be verified.

RAMC’s team of wound care professionals receive continuous education so they are always on the forefront of the latest treatments for wounds.
